Actually the multimedia aspect of a console is very important.  Can't believe you seriously think the Ps2 ranks that far ahead, it brought nothing to the table as those games would still have been released without the Ps2, though on the 2 technically superior consoles that gen. When cross game chat is universal next gen you'll understand why it was so important.

Important, based on what?

Why do you assume that I think the PS2 ranks far ahead of the 360? I haven't provided any sort of list. Both consoles are pretty insignificant in the big picture. One other thing that speaks for the PS2 though is that it still allowed for a middle ground to exist while the 360 (and PS3) eradicated it. Nowadays it's either AAA blockbuster or small downloadable game. Quite a bleak outlook for the future of gaming.

What benefit does cross game chat really bring? You can talk to people who aren't even playing the same game you do? Yeah, I'll be all over that once I can do that on a console I own.

 


Yet the dominance of the Ps2 killed Sega so how was that good for gamers?  You've still given no reason why it ranks above the 360 by any reasonable standard...
